Homemade small cinnamon French Christmas cookies from the region Alsace. Slightly soft cookies with a chewy inside. These cookies are made according to the vanilla snowball bredele recipe, but I added cinnamon powder. To get different flavors you can change the cinnamon powder to gingerbread spices, cardamom and so on. Good luck and happy baking.
